Running a map costs 1 map credit. Multiple single map runs spend credits as the map is repeated.

"Travel to a dimension where maps are scarce, in an attempt to learn to be more resourceful. You will earn one map Credit for each World Zone you clear, and it costs 1 credit to run 1 map. Completing Zone 100 with this challenge active will return you to your original dimension. Double prestige from Scientist IV will not work during this challenge."

Rules[]

Note: For the duration of this challenge, the double prestige reward from Scientist IV will be temporarily disabled.

For the duration of this challenge, a new temporary currency is added: map credits. Every time a zone is completed (starting zone 1) a map credit is earned.

Starting any map costs 1 map credit. Each repeat of the said map will also cost an additional credit.

If the player has no credits, they can't start any map, with the following message:

You are all out of Map Credits! Clear some more zones to earn some more.

If the player runs out of map credits while doing a map, they will be kicked out to the map selection screen.

Map credits are only gained and used during this challenge.

Strategy[]

Use the "Equip First" setting. You should always be using this anyway.

Don't farm maps for resources. Your map credits are very limited, and most of them should go to prestiges.

Only get prestiges up through Greatsword at most. Each kind of equipment gets a new prestige every five zones, so you can keep any given kind of equipment up to date so long as you give it a new map credit every five zones. With Prestigous, each map run will update two different kinds of equipment. Thus, overall, you can keep 10 kinds of equipment fully upgraded. Trying to upgrade more will mean that some of them fall below maximum prestige level.

To get the most out of your maps, use the Prestigious map modifier, so that you get twice as many pieces of equipment per map. Prestigious was added long after Mapology, and the developer has confirmed that they meant to disable it during this challenge. Now it's too late.

While running maps, pay attention to which prestige book drops on each repeat. Once you see a drop of a book for Greatsword, exit out of maps and go back to running world zones. The reason is that once you see Greatsword books, you must have already collected all the available books up through battleaxe. This is enough in practice, and it's not worth chancing a mishap to try an additionally get the maximum upgrade of Greatsword. Because of how Prestiguous works, this method also means that you will be behind on Shoulderguards as well. If you want to, perhaps near the end of a Challenge² run, you can switch to also fully upgrading these last two kinds of equipment, for a little bit of extra oomph.

Do run The Wall, because it's a large resource increase for just one map credit. If you run it early, you can even get an equipment prestige from it, and not waste a credit at all. If you make a mistake, though, it's still well worth a map credit to run it.
